A New Day

It is just about 7:30am and Adrienne is in Houston. Mom and I both slept some but could have used more. Here is the thing about sleeping in a hospital room while not in a bed: I am not so old that I can't get into the contortionistic (totally a word) positions necessary to sleep in a chair but I am too old to hold those positions very long. Something would start to hurt and/or fall asleep and I would have start positioning all over again on the other side. And then, when I could finally find the perfect position someone would come it to take vitals or blood or something. The nausea seems to be gone; Adrienne says that means the anestesia has finally worn off.

One of the nurses last night assured mom that this was the worst part and today wouldbe better because she would be able to get up and walk some. If you know mom, and you all do, you know that she is very dubious of this claim.

Anyway, Jeannette will be picking Adrienne up in a few hours and bringing her here. Yay!!
